    Serve this hearty side dish alongside roasted pork or the holiday turkey. It also makes a delicious vegetarian entrée, paired with a tossed green salad.

    Wine Pairing

    This pairs well with soft, medium-bodied white wines like the Diemersdal MM Louw Sauvignon Blanc, Durbanville from our Wine Club.

    Directions:

    Position a rack in the lower third of an oven and preheat to 350°F.

    Spread the bread cubes out on a baking sheet. Bake, stirring occasionally, until the bread is dry and crispy, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let the bread cool completely. Transfer to a large bowl and set aside.

    Increase the oven temperature to 375°F.

    Cut the stem end off each squash. Using a spoon, scoop out the seeds and pulp from the center and discard. Cut a thin slice off the bottom end of each squash to create a level surface. Season the squash cavities with salt and pepper. Stand the squashes upright in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.

    In a large sauté pan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onions and sauté until soft, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic, salt and pepper and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the nutmeg and the assorted fresh herbs. Add the onion mixture to the bowl with the bread. Add the parsley and cranberries and stir to combine. Stir in 1 1/2 cups of the stock. Spoon the stuffing into the squash cavities, mounding a small amount on the top.

    Pour the remaining 1/2 cup stock into the baking dish. Bake until the squashes are tender when pierced with a fork and the stuffing is browned, 1 to 1 1/4 hours. If the stuffing begins to brown too quickly, cover the squashes loosely with aluminum foil. Remove the squashes from the oven, drizzle each with 1 tsp. olive oil and serve immediately.
